Scarlett Johansson calls for deepfake ban after AI video goes viral
"Scarlett Johansson is calling on the government to pass a law limiting the use of AI after a video featuring an AI deepfake of the actress circulated online. In a statement to People, Johansson said, “It is terrifying that the U.S. government is paralyzed when it comes to passing legislation that protects all of its citizens against the imminent dangers of A.I.”
The video in question shows Johansson, along with other Jewish celebrities including Jerry Seinfeld, Mila Kunis, Jack Black, Drake, Jake Gyllenhaal, Adam Sandler, and others, wearing a t-shirt that shows the name “Kanye” along with an image of a middle finger that has the Star of David in the center. Ye (formerly known as Kanye West) returned to X last week to post antisemitic comments. He also began selling shirts with a swastika on his website, which has since been taken down."
